Dear all,

According to a rather reliable source, Emirates might be on its way to Canada via Brussels?!
Toronto, Montréal and Vancouver are mentioned as potential Canadian destinations.
Emirates executives are planning a formal visit to Brussels later this year.

Who knows more?

it means that the airline has slots at their disposal, or filed a request to buy or sell bru slots.
slots are not always used to maintain or start-up operations.
or they expire, or they are used for strategic purposes, or they are sold to a third party.

as well project one as project two are cancelled according to my sources.
project one is moving to Paris, the investors of project two will only invest in a new company if nobody else shows serious interest in linking bru with India, direct or nonstop.

bru-can & bru-pvg are no options, it is bru-pek or nothing.
however, there is still no sign of hainan airlines on the bru slot allocation list.

this doesn't look good ...

project one has been altered to bom-bru-jfk, and now it will be altered once more, to bom-cdg-jfk.
this means no more bru in the jet airways planning.

project two has entered faze three and has been modified.

etihad will serve brussels later this year, don't worry.

hi,

this weekend I attended the belasia fair 2005.
I spoke to dozens of people, including many airline managers and representatives.
besides new upcoming links to the UAE, India and China, Thailand seems to become the next Asian country with a non-stop bru link.
a lot of industry professionals are ...

jet airways will initially fly the bom-bru-jfk route 3 times a week.
if all goes well, they will fly daily later this year or next year in a split operation, 4 times a week bom-bru-jfk and 3 times a week del-bru-jfk.

athens is indeed no longer an sn codeshare destination.
this wasn't communicated to the press either.
nor was the suspension of the napels route until juli 2nd.

@sn30952

the new airline would operate out of Brussels, but with LX registered a/c.
it would not be another Indian carrier with VT registered a/c, like you suggested.
the a/c that they seek are not new, but stored a/c standing somewhere in the desert.

del-bru
bru-bom
bom-bru
bru-hkg via del, pax for ...
